Little Mix have long been vocal about their love for the LGBT community, and last night (March 18) the girls reminded their audience of how special all their fans are to them by giving a shout-out on the Kansas City leg of Ariana Grande's Dangerous Woman Tour, where they are supporting the American singer.

'Secret Love Song' has often been said to be an LGBT anthem since the release of Get Weird, with lines like: "Why can't I kiss you in the street? Why can't I kiss you on the dance floor?"

Last night, they took time before performing the song to dedicate the song to their LGBT fans, with Jade Thirlwall using her Instagram feed to say more about the moment and spread an empowering message.

"Singing Secret Love Song meant more than usual tonight. To our LGBT fans...please don't ever be afraid to be who you are," she posted alongside a photo of the girls performing at last night's show.

The girls previously confirmed that they'd wanted to make the song even more outspokenly supportive of LGBT rights with an accompanying music video, but hadn't been able to due to time constraints.

Last year the group dedicated an emotional performance of 'Secret Love Song' to the victims of the shooting of the Orlando nightclub, where 49 people were killed in an attack on a local gay club.
